BEAT THE PHILLIES!!

[brewcrewkid14]

Whew

 

Looks like this one's going to be a toughie to come out of with a W. I guess less stress when you're watching the game expecting the worst right?

[Gobias Industries]

With the bullpen absolutely gassed, I'm having a well-rested Dave Bush throw 120 pitches regardless of pretty much any result. They need a day off. If we can beat Hamels, it's just a bonus.

 

Just browsing the Phillies stats; Chase Utley is such a beast. 18 XBH already!! Looks like all the Phillies hit Bush pretty hard. Liking our chances Thursday much more.

[hawing]

This is not a favorable-looking matchup on paper, is it? I guess that's why they play the games.

[thablingster]

Hamels is good, check. Hamels is left handed, check. Time for our offense to score some runs.

 

Here's to Jenkins taking Bush deep and then Bush pitching a strong 7.

[Lake Geneva Brewer Fan]

Coshun called Bush a possible sacrificail lamp tommorow, let's hope he makes the most of it.

[JohnBriggs12]

Phillies figure to get into Milwaukee very late. Let's hope Rockies can take them about 15 innings tonight.

[SeriesFinale]

Here's to Jenkins taking Bush deep and then Bush pitching a strong 7.

 

I love ole Jenks, but I hope he goes 0-4 with two strikeouts tomorrow.

[Glennron]

It'll be nice to finally face a lefty, but then again not so nice that it's Hamels. Hopefully they can mount a furious comeback against him like the August game at Miller Park last season. I'd much prefer that to the game in Philly where he baffled the entire lineup.

[dlk9s]

Here's to Jenkins taking Bush deep and then Bush pitching a strong 7.

I love ole Jenks, but I hope he goes 0-4 with two strikeouts tomorrow.

I'd be happy with a solo shot, but Bush goes the distance and the Brewers win 10-1.

 

[Mike2k33]

This will be my first game in attendance this year. Cannot wait, although I hoped for a better pitching matchup.

 

Oh well, pitch well Boosh. I should be drunk enough not to really care by the 3rd inning so all should be well.

 

Welcome back Jenks!

[ELCABALLO45]

I almost wished Woogie would of put Yost as the starter again (hey, it worked!). But i also think we should tell Bush "throw 7 or 8 innings, and have fun" And if he gets lit up, oh well. Are bullpen needs a break.

[Darnell Junior]

Geoff hits for the cycle, and also has 4 K's in a 16 inning game that the Brewers win 8-7 on a Suppan PH suicide squeeze. It's the first Golden Sombrercycle in the modern era.

[Glennron]

Good lord, Utley already has 9 home runs?! I know it's like 1/8th of a season or whatever but him and Burrell are on freakin' tears!

[And That]

My prediction is that Bill Hall will get on base five times, score the winning run, and be traded to the Nationals for a pitching prospect.

[BrewCrewForever]

Welcome back Jenks!

 

Oh Dave Bush, I hope your ready to pitch 7 plus innings today. I just hope it's a good 7 plus.

[Invader3K]

This may just be one the Brewers are forced to tank if they don't get a good start from Bush. They can't keep trotting out their entire bullpen this early in the season.

[Brian the Automator]

Looking forward to a 27-pitch no-hitter by Bush.

[wisconsinfan47]

I like this. With the state of the BP as it is, Bushy is in a unique position tonight. He's on a long leash and can relax. I feel like he'll pitch a good game.

Brewers win 4-3. 3 solo homers by Jenks. 4 solo homers by Fielder. 7 strong by Bush: 21K. 3 hits. All HR. Guaranteed.

[RightFieldCoder]

Looking forward to a 27-pitch no-hitter by Bush.

How quickly would the pitch hitter batting 27th be sent down to the minors if he swung at the first pitch?

 

I will be in attendence. I look forward to cheering Jenkins the first time he is up. I am not looking forward to the Phillies giving Bush and the Brewers the baby seal treatment.

 

 

Hey, that gave me a thought. Are we going to bring back the Baby Seal Award? Or has it perminently been retired to Turnbow's mantle?

[samwise]

Memo to Dave Bush:

 

Get ahead of Jenkins, then breaking stuff down and in.

[Blancofan1]

Hamels is a very good lefty, but he's only 1 of the 4 lefty's starting against the Crew in the next 4 days. Ryan Braun, your batting avg. called, it's glad to be back this weekend.

[dlk9s]

My best case scenario within some sort of reason: Bush leaves after 7, we're up 6-2, and Turnbow pitches the final two innings (and we win).

[creamcityfan]

I am going to the game tonight, 6 rows behind the Brewer dugout, ihope Geoff gets a standing ovation and the Brewers get a big win.

[datrain711]

there is no part of this matchup that looks good for the brewers, other than that hamels is a lefty.

 

I guess Bush pitched better last time, so we have to hope he improves and keeps the walks down.

 

Since the season has been unpredictable, and because of our depleted pen and Bush starting it seems like we should lose, I am going to predict a 6-4 Brewers victory.
